Finally fixed... it was this user's error. 🙁
I had added a customization to my home page sidebar settings in Custom CSS that prevented the posts from showing.
Any admin who wants to delete my doofus duplicate post, I'd be grateful. 😉
So I've been trying different things, but am still unable to bring the blog posts back to the front page. I'm hoping someone might have a solution for me, other than switching to Education Pro as our board prefers the look of the original Education theme.
Edited to add:
I found the original Education theme files (yay, Archive section in "My StudioPress"!) and I see that I did move things around on the front page, basically move the Call to Action up and the Featured section down. Everything else looks the same.
I hit submit on my reply, but it doesn't show and the index says there are only 2 posts here. So I'm resubmitting... if this is a duplicate, I'm sorry!
Thanks, Brad, for the response. I removed...// Replaces homepage blog posts remove_action( 'genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop' );....and left this behind...
genesis();And now do not get a blank page or error messages, so I am closer to what I need. However, the blog posts still do not appear on my home page.
I've
- made sure my "Front page displays Your latest posts" setting is checked
- made sure my custom css doesn't hide blog posts
- searched my functions.php, but as I'm a little weak on the PHP side I'm not sure what else might be missing
I would compare my functions.php and home.php files with the original Education (non-pro) file, but I don't have a copy of the originals, only the edited ones. My bad!
Perhaps this will help? Here is what is in my child theme's home.php file:
<?php add_action( 'genesis_meta', 'education_home_genesis_meta' ); /** * Add widget support for homepage. If no widgets active, display the default loop. * */ function education_home_genesis_meta() { global $paged; if( $paged < 1 ) { if ( is_active_sidebar( 'slider' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'intro' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'featured' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'call-to-action' ) ) { add_action( 'genesis_before_content', 'education_home_loop_helper', 1 ); } } } function education_home_loop_helper() { echo '<div id="home-featured">'; genesis_widget_area( 'slider', array( 'before' => '<div class="slider widget-area">' ) ); genesis_widget_area( 'intro', array( 'before' => '<div class="intro widget-area"><div class="inner">', 'after' => '<div class="clear"></div></div></div><!-- end .intro -->' ) ); genesis_widget_area( 'call-to-action', array( 'before' => '<div class="call-to-action"><div class="banner-left"></div>', 'after' => '<div class="banner-right"></div></div><!-- end .call-to-action -->' ) ); genesis_widget_area( 'featured', array( 'before' => '<div class="featured widget-area"><div class="inner">', 'after' => '<div class="clear"></div></div></div><!-- end .featured -->' ) ); echo '</div>'; } genesis();... and here is what is I have in the functions.php file:

I am using Pro on a subdirectory site (and have been for years) but this site in the root of the domain is the "Education Child Theme."

Thanks, Bill, for the response... I found that the Jetpack module had the mobile theme option activated. I must've turned that on at some point although I'm not sure why.
I deactivated it, and it appears to work now. So once again, sadly, my issue may be classified as USER ERROR. LOL.
Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction. I really appreciate it.
